    Sadly he is likely permanently tarnished. It’s important to note in this case 3 of the people involved in the event alleged filed suit civilly before the criminal trial even began. That’s important because people generally wait for the outcome of a criminal case before suing so that they don’t have to reprove facts. This leads me to believe they all knew the allegations were false and were trying to collect before that was shown in court. As far as the Anthony Rapp case went I am unsure what happened there to it was almost immediately dismissed but they were 40 year old allegations. The was another case where a man claimed he was groped by spacey in a bar but they were dropped almost immediately by the DA.
